Idea????? Do away with the breakout!!!!

Ed Fernandez · 11-29-2010, 11:27 PM

Here's my idea.One car lines up on the starting line.The other car lines up in the other lane on a starting line 1/2 mile down the track.Handicap start and both cars race to the finish line.No clean/dirty tree,no fast car advantage chasing and as much sense as some of the bull$hit that's being suggested.
How about we all band together and pressure the powers that be to fix the HP/AHFS mess.

I agree with the no break out concept but in the final round only as it would;

1. Places more emphasis back on performance incase you made the final

2. First car to finish line winner making it easier for spectators to relate, I.e. Pinks all out

3. Who wouldn't give up 5 HP for a national win (some poor drivers may have to give up even more)

The answer to that would be what NHRA did a couple of years ago with class winners at the Indy nationals.
